Dot and Key Prices September 2026: Zero Discounts on 151 Listings

This card and the next one are the clearest thing on the page. Both cost Rs. 595. This one contains 110 ml and the other contains 20 g. Per unit that is Rs. 5.41 against Rs. 29.75 - a five and a half fold difference at an identical price, on the same shelf, with no discount on either to muddy it. A body sunscreen is also the most under-bought sun product there is: people who apply SPF to their face apply nothing to their arms and neck. The stated SPF 50+ PA++++ is the same as every other sunscreen on this page.

• Price: Rs. 595 for 110 ml
• Cost per unit: Rs. 5.41 per ml
• Key detail: Rs. 595, Watermelon Cooling Sunscreen Body Spray SPF 50+ PA++++, 110 ml - no discount

• Buying logic: Arms, legs and shoulders - the body sun protection almost nobody buys.

Twenty-nine rupees seventy-five a gram is the most expensive thing per unit in this entire read, and it costs exactly what the 110 ml body spray above costs. That is not necessarily bad value: a stick's whole purpose is reapplication during the day, over makeup, without a mess - a genuine problem that a 50 g tube does not solve. But it is a supplementary product. Buying a 20 g stick as your primary sunscreen means either paying five times the per-gram rate or, far more likely, under-applying, because nobody rubs a stick on thickly enough to reach SPF 50.

Four hundred and forty-five rupees for 50 g is Dot & Key's standard face-sunscreen price, shared by three products in this read. At Rs. 8.90 per gram it is the cheapest facial option on the page, and the practical argument for the cheapest adequate sunscreen is strong: the single biggest failure in sun protection is applying too little, and people ration expensive sunscreen. The stated SPF 50+ PA++++ is identical to every other sunscreen here including the Rs. 649 one. A cushion-gel texture is a cosmetic property, not a protective one.

• Price: Rs. 445 for 50 g

• Buying logic: Daily, all year, and mandatory alongside the acids and retinol above.

Same Rs. 445, same 50 g, same stated SPF 50+ and PA++++, same Rs. 8.90 per gram. The difference is what rides along with the filters: vitamin C and E are antioxidants, and there is a reasonable argument for having them in a morning product because they address free-radical damage that UV filters do not. Whether the concentration in a sunscreen base does much is a fair question the listing does not answer and we have not tested. What is certain is that the sun protection is the same, so this is a choice about the extras, not about SPF.

• Buying logic: Daily use, if you want antioxidants in the same step as the sunscreen.

The third sunscreen at exactly Rs. 445 for 50 g. When a brand sets one price across a shelf, it is telling you that the choice is about skin type rather than budget, and this is the one aimed at skin that breaks out under sunscreen. Cica soothes and niacinamide helps with oil control and marks. The complaint that sunscreen causes breakouts is usually about texture and occlusion rather than the filters, so a lighter formula genuinely helps - but the more common cause is not double-cleansing it off, which is what the Rs. 499 balm on this page is for.

• Price: Rs. 445 for 50 g
• Cost per unit: Rs. 8.90 per g

• Buying logic: Oily, breakout-prone skin that finds most sunscreens heavy.

Fifty rupees more than the standard 50 g sunscreens, or Rs. 9.90 per gram, and the premium buys water resistance rather than more protection - the stated SPF 50+ PA++++ is the same figure as everything else on this shelf. Water resistance is a real and testable property: it describes how long a film survives immersion before it needs reapplying, not whether it survives indefinitely. No sunscreen is waterproof, and every water-resistant one still needs reapplying after towelling off. Worth owning if you swim; not worth the premium if you do not.

• Price: Rs. 495 for 50 g

• Buying logic: Swimming, outdoor sport, and any day involving heavy sweating.

A 100 per cent mineral sunscreen uses zinc oxide and titanium dioxide rather than organic filters, and it is the standard recommendation for very sensitive or reactive skin because the filters sit on the surface rather than absorbing into it. Rs. 12.98 per gram makes it the most expensive facial sunscreen here, 46 per cent above the Rs. 445 tier, at the same stated SPF 50+ PA++++. The honest trade-off with mineral formulas is cosmetic: they are more likely to leave a white cast on deeper skin tones, and a sunscreen you avoid because of the cast protects nothing.

• Price: Rs. 649 for 50 g
• Cost per unit: Rs. 12.98 per g

• Buying logic: Sensitive or reactive skin, and children, where mineral filters are preferred.

Two per cent is the standard leave-on salicylic acid concentration, and being oil-soluble it works inside the pore rather than on the surface - which is what separates it from the salicylic face washes that rinse away in seconds. At Rs. 19.95 per millilitre it is the cheapest serum on the page per unit despite having the lowest sticker price after nothing at all, because the 20 ml bottle is priced tightly. The cica alongside it is there to offset the irritation salicylic acid can cause. Build up frequency; do not start daily.

• Price: Rs. 399 for 20 ml

• Buying logic: Active breakouts and congestion, a few nights a week to start.

Four hundred and forty-nine rupees is the smallest serum price on the site and Rs. 22.45 per millilitre is above the shelf's typical rate, which is the 20 ml bottle doing its work. Ten per cent niacinamide is a high-street-standard concentration and the ingredient is the safest starting point in this chapter - it rarely irritates, layers with almost anything, and addresses the post-acne marks most people actually want fixed. If you have never used an active serum, start here rather than with the retinol or the glycolic.

• Price: Rs. 449 for 20 ml
• Cost per unit: Rs. 22.45 per ml

• Buying logic: Blemish marks and uneven tone, the most broadly tolerated active on this page.

Nought point two per cent is a beginner-to-intermediate retinol concentration - well below the 1 per cent formulas some brands sell - and for most people starting retinoids that is the right place to be, because tolerance is built rather than assumed. Thirty millilitres at Rs. 19.97 per ml puts it exactly on this shelf's going rate. The non-negotiable pairing is a morning sunscreen, of which this page offers seven. Do not run it on the same night as the glycolic toner, and expect to judge results over months.

Priced identically to the retinol serum above - same Rs. 599, same 30 ml, same Rs. 19.97 per millilitre - which is this site's habit of pricing a shelf rather than a formula. The job is the opposite one: hyaluronic acid holds water at the surface and ceramides rebuild the lipid barrier, so this is the repair half of a routine whose other half is an acid or a retinoid. It is the least likely product on this page to irritate anything, and the one most people under-buy relative to how many actives they are using.

• Price: Rs. 599 for 30 ml

• Buying logic: Skin that is being pushed by actives, or dehydrated skin in any season.

Rs. 24.95 per millilitre is the highest serum cost on this page, and the 20 ml bottle is the reason - the same money at 30 ml would put it in line with the rest of the shelf. There is a genuine argument for small vitamin C bottles, though: L-ascorbic acid and its derivatives oxidise on exposure to air and light, so a bottle you take six months to finish is not delivering 10 per cent by the end. The vitamin E and niacinamide alongside it are there partly for stability and partly to broaden what it does. Store it away from the bathroom window.

• Buying logic: Morning routines under sunscreen, where vitamin C makes its antioxidant case.

Four rupees separates this from the Intense version across the same 100 g, so on price there is nothing to choose. The difference is formulation intent: this one pairs ceramides with hyaluronic acid, a humectant that binds water at the surface, while the Intense version leans harder on the occlusive side. Dehydrated skin - tight, dull, fine surface lines - wants the humectant; genuinely dry, flaking skin wants the richer one. One caveat on any humectant: in a very dry room it needs something over the top of it to hold the water in.

One hundred grams is double the size of most face moisturisers and Rs. 3.99 per gram is among the best value on the site. Ceramides are the lipids that hold the skin barrier together, and they deplete with retinoid and acid use - which is exactly why a routine built on the glycolic toner or the retinol serum here needs a cream like this rather than a light gel. If you are buying one moisturiser from this page and your skin is dry or being pushed by actives, this is it. There is no discount on it, as there is on nothing else here.

• Buying logic: Dry skin, winter, and alongside any of the acids or retinol on this page.

Here is the size trap in its plainest form: this and the 100 g Barrier Repair Intense both cost Rs. 399, and one of them contains 20 per cent more product. Rs. 4.99 per gram against Rs. 3.99. That does not make this a bad buy - the formulas are different and a niacinamide-led cream suits skin that a heavy ceramide cream would not - but it does mean the comparison should be made deliberately rather than on the sticker, which is identical. This is the whole argument for a per-unit column on a site with no discounts to compare.

• Buying logic: Normal to combination skin wanting a lighter finish than a barrier cream.

Gel moisturisers are water-heavy and light on occlusive lipids, which is what makes them sit well on oily skin and what makes them a poor choice for a damaged barrier. At Rs. 7.90 per gram it costs almost twice what the 100 g creams do per unit, and the reason is the pack size rather than the formula. Cica (centella asiatica) is a well-regarded soothing ingredient for irritated skin. If you are oily and using the salicylic serum on this page, this is the right pairing; if your skin is stinging, the barrier creams are the better call regardless of type.

• Buying logic: Oily and acne-prone skin, particularly under sunscreen or makeup.

Rs. 9.98 per millilitre makes this the most expensive moisturiser on the page per unit - two and a half times the 100 g barrier creams - and the justification is that it is not really competing with them. A retinol night cream is an active product with a moisturiser as its base, so it replaces both steps. The ceramides alongside the retinol are a sensible pairing, because retinoids compromise the barrier while they work. Start twice a week, use sunscreen every morning without exception, and do not layer it with the glycolic toner on the same night.

Two rupees forty-nine a millilitre is the floor of this entire read, and a face wash is the right product to find there. A cleanser has seconds of contact time before it goes down the drain, so the niacinamide in the name is doing far less work than the same ingredient does in the serum four cards down. That is not a criticism of the product - it is the reason to buy the cheap cleanser and spend the money on the leave-on step. Note there is no discount here and none anywhere else on this site: Rs. 249 is simply the price.

• Buying logic: Daily cleansing, and the sensible place to spend least in any routine.

Identical price, identical size, identical Rs. 2.49 per millilitre. Dot & Key prices its face washes by format rather than by ingredient, so the two 100 ml gels cost the same and the decision between them is which one you would rather use twice a day. Watermelon is the brand's cooling, lightweight line. The wider point worth carrying through this page: when a brand sets one price for a whole shelf, price stops being information, and what you get for it - the pack size - becomes the only number that varies.

A higher sticker price and a smaller bottle put this at Rs. 3.69 per millilitre against the gels' Rs. 2.49 - about 48 per cent more per unit. Some of that is the foaming format, which uses a different dispenser and a lower-concentration formula by design; some of it is simply that 80 ml packs cost more per millilitre than 100 ml ones almost everywhere. Vitamin C in a rinse-off cleanser is a marketing position rather than a meaningful delivery route for the ingredient, which is worth knowing before paying the premium for it.

A cleansing balm is not a more expensive face wash - it is the first step of a double cleanse, an oil-based product that dissolves sunscreen, makeup and sebum that a water-based gel cannot lift. If you are using any of the sunscreens further down this page properly - and properly means a generous layer, reapplied - then a balm or oil first cleanse is genuinely useful rather than an upsell. At Rs. 7.13 per millilitre it is the priciest cleanser here, but a balm is used in small quantities and 70 ml lasts.

At Rs. 2.63 per millilitre this is the second-cheapest thing on the site per unit, and unlike the face washes it stays on the skin, which is where an acid actually works. Glycolic acid loosens the bonds between dead surface cells; the practical result is smoother texture over a few weeks rather than overnight. Two cautions the listing does not lead with: it increases sun sensitivity, so it belongs in a night routine backed by a morning sunscreen, and running it on the same night as the retinol serum on this page is how people damage a barrier.

A milky toner is a hydrating, non-exfoliating step - closer to a very light essence than to the astringent toners the word used to mean. Priced within four rupees of the glycolic toner across the same 150 ml, which is another instance of this site's pattern: within a category, everything costs the same, so choose on what the product does. The sensible pairing is to own this one alongside an acid toner rather than instead of it, and alternate - acid on the nights you exfoliate, this on the nights you repair.
